Treating Silverfish

Whether you notice them or not, nearly every home across Canada has pests hiding out indoors. These unwelcome guests creep and crawl, hiding out behind the scenes. You might see spots and droppings, or, in the case of silverfish, you might see nothing at all. Silverfish infestations are notoriously difficult to manage but they are also extremely common. The fact is that these pests are quick, sneaky and operate during the late-night hours. If pests are plaguing your home or workplace, all it takes is one call to the experts at Toodaloo.

What’s So Bad About Silverfish?

With April showers right around the corner, excess moisture is a fact of life. A bit of rain or humidity might ruin your hair, but it makes an ideal environment for insects. Damp spaces like bathrooms, crawlspaces, basements and even closets can house hundreds of small, slithering pests. Having houseguests tucked into corners might not seem like the worst fate but these tiny terrors can do ten times their body weight in damage.

In addition to snatching up crumbs from flooring and countertops, silverfish have a broad diet that covers most organics. Anything cellulose-based can act as a snack for these hungry bugs. This means that materials like cotton or paper are all on the menu, as well as organic adhesives. You don’t have to be a fashionista to want to keep these things out of your closet. When you begin to notice peeling wallpaper or holey clothing, chances are that you are dealing with pests. Don’t let these bugs eat you out of house and home when you can call in a Toodaloo technician to save the day!
